Round Dance & Media: Reflections on Idle No More

5 years ago

This is a short film that looks at an Idle No More Rounddance that was held at the University of Alberta campus on January 10th 2013, through a lens that is often informed by media coverage of events. By contrasting the eye-witness lens of my camera with the lens of Youtube news sources I want to collide these two types of learning together to see what comes out of the mediation.

This might be a useful conversation starter in MediaStudies/Sociology/Anthropology/Ethnomusicology classes.
